Kazoku Uteki Premium Ebony Gyuto 21 cm

A premium Japanese chef's knife from the Uteki series, designed for precision cutting, slicing, and chopping of meat, fish, vegetables, and more. Forged in Seki—the heart of Japan’s knife-making tradition—this 21 cm Gyuto combines high-performance VG10 steel, layered Damascus beauty, and a striking tsuchime finish for optimal function and timeless craftsmanship.

The Kazoku Uteki Premium Gyuto features a hard VG10 steel core, renowned for its purity and edge retention, hardened to 61 HRC for long-lasting sharpness. Ground at a fine 15° edge and tapered to a thin profile, this knife glides effortlessly through ingredients. The 68-layer Damascus cladding offers both strength and elegance, while the hand-hammered tsuchime finish not only adds artisanal texture but also helps prevent food from sticking to the blade.

The handle is crafted in a traditional Japanese octagonal shape from rich ebony wood, paired with a natural horn ferrule. Tapered for comfort and balance, it delivers both ergonomic control and refined aesthetics.
